I know the suckiness, but on the bright side the red glows reek (they are made with sulfur) and the glow fizzles out within seconds.

Really? I didn't know this at all. The sulfur bit, mainly. I know the red glow doesn't always hang around very long. Can anyone else confirm this? Not that I don't believe I'm just curious if all red glow have a sulfuric smell.

My bad, it's Strontium Sulfide, not sulfur.

I am not a chemist, so maybe I misunderstood this:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphor
Quote:
Glow-in-the-dark toys
Calcium sulfide with strontium sulfide with bismuth as activator, (Ca,Sr)S:Bi, yields blue light with glow times up to 12 hours, red and orange are modifications of the zinc sulfide formula. Red color can be obtained from strontium sulfide.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strontium_sulfide
Quote:
As expected for a sulfide salt of alkaline earth, the sulfide hydrolyzes readily:
SrS + 2 H2O → Sr(OH)2 + H2S
For this reason, samples of SrS have an odor of rotten eggs.

Quote:
Smell
Like all Zinc Sulfide powders, Zinc Red has a strong sulfur odor in its pigment form. This order generally subsides when mixed into a medium.

Neither me, interesting, but honestly I want that f***** badly! Looks like an awesome colour-combo to me. AND still no reply from SB yet?! Very unusual, hope this is good, fingers still crossed...

That's from a site that sells glow in dark pigment powders.

I have 2 red glow BBBs and they smell really awful.

Unsure if you have super-sensitive sense of smell or are just a drama queen!

None of my red glow figures have any discernible smell unless I wedge 'em tight up against my nose . . . which until your b*tching, I'd never even have considered doing!

If it chaffs yer ass that much I'm sure there's a few guys looking to buy!

I wasn't complaining, I was just trying to cheer up the collectors who missed out.

Actually, I do have hyper-perceptive olfactory and auditory senses due to a neurological condition. OK, back to topic please.

and I guess that

Classic Andy. :wink:

Really looking forward to see how this red glows. Hopefully it will be as nice as the blue glow.

Between a couple Obake Dogs, DBM fighters and Brains/Bees, I have regular, green, orange and blue glow. Never seen a red glow toy in person before. Looks pretty awesome in photos, though!

If you want to get on Andy's good side, find him a nice granny with saggy boobs- he's on the hunt for some "real head" if you know what I mean. But that's for another thread. ;)
